This book was released on 2017-05-16 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Voyage of the Jamestown on Her Errand of Mercy Sour. Explanation seems to be necessary for so long delaying the publication in full of the thanks of the warm hearted people in Ire land who addressed me on the part of the contributors in New Eng land. The publication has been delayed in hopes to add to the other documents, the report of the Committee at Cork, but I do not deem it expedient longer to wait for this, as it will no doubt appear in the report of the Committee of Distribution which will doubtless be made as soon as the funds are all appropriated and the account closed. It may also be considered necessary to offer some apology for print ing so much; to render the record complete, and to transmit fully the feeling of the Irish people, less could not have been printed, and al though much of what appears here, has been before the public in the newspapers, I have deemed it proper to publish the whole together.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HAVING promised, perhaps rashly, to publish a narrative of the voyage of the Jamestown, I shall endeavor to make it as simple and concise as the case will admit, leaving out all extraneous matter not necessary to complete the record of the voyage. As I have not leisure or talent, to write a sentimental journal, I shall not attempt it.To use the language of the Boston Post, "As this vessel is associated with one of the noblest charities on record," a sketch of her voyage will be interesting to many, and particularly to the kind and sympathising Americans who have so generously contributed, as well as to our trans-atlantic friends who have so kindly and gratefully received their donations.As weighing the anchor, is generally the most difficult process in starting on a voyage, so writing an introduction, I conclude to be, the most difficult part of writing a narrative. I had got thus far, when I fortunately received a note, which will enable me to get under weigh, from the Rev. R. C. Waterston, stating that in looking over the records at Plymouth, his attention was called by Rev. Dr. Kendall (whose ordination took place in 1800) to the following, under date March 1676."The order and distribution of this colony's contributions, made by divers Christians in Ireland, for the relief of such as are impoverished, distressed and in necessity by the late Indian war, was as respects this colony apportioned as followeth:"An account of this donation, amounting to one hundred and twenty-four pounds ten shillings, apportioned among fourteen towns on the Cape, may be found in "Morton's New England Memorial," edited by the late Judge Davis, pages 459, 60, 61, where it is written, "The donation from Ireland is a gratifying instance of the generous influence of Christian sympathies, and is supposed to have been procured, by the exertions of the Rev. Nathaniel Mather, at that time a minister of the Congregational denomination in Dublin."
